Is Laufey a bad omen for the remakes?
Looking at the God of War: Laufey reveal, I couldn't help but think this is the gameplay direction they are taking the remakes.
The engine seemed updated with aerial combat moves and manual jump/double jump which was what gave me some hope that they will stick closer to how the OG games used to play. Still feel that this camera angle feels wrong as well even though they have clearly zoomed it out a bit. That said, I think Laufey gameplay looked more fun than 2018 and Ragnarok.
Personally, I hope remakes won't be like this and feel more OG than "new" GOW, but after this..realistically I think it will.
What do you think?
